X1 Unlock - Confirming unlock method - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
I am looking to SIM-unlock my new X1, is there anyway of doing it? Can I use the Kaiser Sim-Unlocker or any other method? Thanks a lot!

This might be a really stupid question, but have you tried another sim card in it yet?
Mine came from Vodafone UK, and is unlocked out of the box

lol....well I am getting mine off of Vodafone so fingers crossed it comes unlocked. Ill give it a try when I get it. Thanks for the info!

I got mine from Three in Sweden and it came unlocked =) They have NOT locked their X1 they will brand it and lock it in January, I have talked with them so go get your unlocked X1 =)

You cannot use the other unlockers for this model.
Contact me by PM , I can give you the unlock code.

*ALL* UK vodafone contract phones are now sim unlocked.

Same with Telnor/Vodafone Sweden. They do not lock the phones.
You might see the locked phones soon.
Now T-Mobile Netherlands has locked phones and they are out in the market.

I can confirm that htccode can remove the simlock from a X1, my X1 was locked with a T-Mobile Netherlands Simlock, but now it's simlock free
Was done in about 5 minutes...

just got one from mobilkom austria (vodafone partner) a week ago - it came unlocked

mine came unlocked out of box. O2 uk (mobiles.co.uk)

I got my X1 last thursday, locked from Vodafone.
Simple visit to htccode and within a few minutes it was unlocked.
Excellent service.

Why don't you just flash the phone with the latest generic firmware as described in the ROM-forum? Branding and SIM-lock should be gone after that.

SIM-lock remains with a ROM flash.

Mine has gone away. Austria Mobilkom branded phone, now with AT_Generic Firmware and no SIM-Lock anymore -I tried SIM-cards from "3" and "T-Mobile" and they are working.
SIM lock has to be a software-issue, I don't think that they will mess with the hardware for each provider?
At least, it's a try. What works for me could work for others too.

is this the same as CID unlock? or only simcard lock?

unlocked x1
SFR (french vodafone partner) provide unlocked x1 too !!

I DONT SEE WHAT I NEED...IS THERE ANY STANDALONE THAT CAN UNLOCK THIS FONE..X1 YES OR NO?WHER?regards

It seems that it´s impossible by now. I´ve asked for unlock in some stores of amena and movistar and they can´t.
We should wait for the solution!! :x

Try to change your O2 ROM with the European ROM using Goldcard method

That would DeBrand the Device (removing the O2 Splash screen etc) however it WILL NOT unlock the device to allow another network's sim card to work in the device.
The ONLY way at the moment to unlock your device is to either obtain the code from O2 which you have tried or pay for one through a unlock site such as the one he's already been shown (http://www.htcimeiunlock.com/htc-hd7-unlock)
^^ ok thanks for all of you guys
i'll try that website
i wish that it work..
best regards for you ...

Rooted, remove Device Unlock App possible?

Hi,
I just bought from Ebay an H872 TMobile LG G6 and found out it's BAD IMEI and can't do SIM UNLOCK or cost too much with Device Unlock APP.
One question, any chance to remove the preinstalled Device Unlock App from phone and revoke the SIM UNLOCK CODE instead?
If it is truly a bad IMEI that will not help. Every carrier will check the IMEI when you try and put it on their network and reject it.
It's doable, just check your phone's IMEI on t-mobile servers here: https://www.t-mobile.com/verifyIMEI.aspx
Also to be sure, check your IMEI also here: http://imeipro.info
I've got a locked H872. I contacted Tmo about unlocking it, and they said that I had to have the original owner contact them to have it unlocked, but they will unlock it. I bought the phone from a guy that bought it from the woman who purchased the phone out right from Tmo. The guy I bought it from used it on straightalk with their Tmo SIM. Anyways, I've been looking for a SIM unlock method that I could do myself, to no avail. In 2014 I SIM unlocked a Sprint XT1056 using the NVITEM software...is there anything like this available for this device

I have a similar requirement, I purchased unlocked t-mobile lg g6 but after 30 days it showed up a message "temporary device unlock has expired" and now it is not accepting my Indian sim network.
If you or anyone else reading this post please let me know if there is such software exists that can help unlock it. :crying:
